Hello! I hope everyone had a great weekend! It felt short after the four day weekend we had last week. I am happy to have a full five days this week, though!
Here is what is happening this week:
Writing: We are continuing to work on our informational pieces about Westward Expansion. Tomorrow we will work on the draft of the first chapter, which is an overview of Westward Expansion. The next chapter will be all about a subtopic they chose. Many of their topics include Sacajawea, Thomas Jefferson, discoveries found on the Corps of Discovery, etc. Their homework tonight was to finish their research of information about Westward Expansion to include in their first chapter.
Math: Their unit test will be on Wednesday. We covered chapters 13, 14 and 16. They received their study guide today and we will spend all of math reviewing tomorrow.
Reading: We are working on comparing and contrasting characters. We will also learn how to find pros and cons of topics using non-fiction texts. These strategies will help the students to better understand their texts and in writing.
Science: The Chapter 10 test is on Thursday. They received their study guide today. We will work on the study guide in class tomorrow and will review on Wednesday.
Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks!
